David Beckham reveals Victoria had a very un-Posh taste in wine

When we think of the Beckhams these days, we picture a lifestyle that's the definition of luxury.

So, it was pretty refreshing – and surprising – to hear David Beckham reveal that his wife's taste wasn't always as posh as we'd imagined...

Chatting about his love of wine in an interview with the Evening Standard yesterday (18 January), David disclosed that Victoria's preferences used to be seriously down-to-earth.

'Victoria didn't really drink wine up until very recently so she has all of a sudden discovered my passion,' he said.

'Well, she went through a stage of drinking a nice Blue Nun and a little bit of Lambrusco,' he added with a laugh.

'But now it's changed,' he added. 'I've introduced her to good, decent wine. I love Californian reds. I love the buttery-ness of Burgundy. Montrachet, I love. Cheval Blanc is one of my favourites.'

And, while David revealed that the couple's date nights now focus on 'spending time together, going for a simple dinner together' and 'having a nice bottle of wine together', it sounds like that side of things wasn't always so sophisticated either...

In fact, David reportedly revealed they used to sneak into a Harvester car park and share a smooch in the back of his car, as it was the only place they could hang out without the risk of being spotted by the paparazzi.

'We led such a glamorous life,' he joked.

Not sure about you, but we're suddenly in the mood for a bottle of Lambrusco...
